Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue

'Your efforts in the south yielded information about Bill Ferny, a Man of Bree with terrible and self-serving ideals. Ferny was working to assist the brigands loyal to Sharkey to join with the Tarkrîp Orcs coming from the north. Such an alliance would pinch the resources to Bree-land from both sides and spell certain doom for her people. Your efforts here in the north have done much to assist us in seeing that the Orcs are broken and their strength diminished.

'Your recent discovery of a cave built into the cliff face at Cirith Núr leads me to believe that the cave will serve a terrible purpose; a place for Ferny to meet with the Orc-leaders and facilitate an arrangement to further invade Bree.

'It seems now that you have been chosen to avert this invasion and shatter this alliance once and for all. You will need to return to the encampment at Cirith Núr and enter the cavern to disrupt the alliance. You must see that the Orcs and evil Men do not succeed in their plans. Are you prepared?'

Background

Rangers, watching movements of enemies from the north and south, are concerned over the appearance of a foe they have long fought in the north.

Objective 1

Locate the Cave

The meeting cave is in the Orc-encampment of Cirith Núr, north-west of the Old Greenway Fort.

Andreg has tasked you with finding the cave where the brigands and Orcs plan to meet and defeat their leaders.

You have located the cave.

Objective 2

Enter the cave

You have found the cave. Now all that remains is to enter it, disperse the brigands and Orcs, and defeat their leaders.

Complete the quest [19] Instance: Broken Alliance.

Objective 3

Talk to Andreg at the Old Greenway Fort

Andreg is at the Old Greenway Fort, south east of Cirith Núr.

You should bring news of your success to Andreg at once.

Andreg: 'Ferny escaped? That does not bode well, but still things could be worse. Given that the Orcs will no longer pose a threat to Bree-land, we have succeeded here. We will turn our attention towards watching Ferny and his associations at once.

'Well done!'
